Not just the contestants, not just us viewers, but even Bigg Boss lost his temper this time at Swami Om and Priyanka Jagga.
This is how the madness starts: Bigg Boss announces the luxury budget task for the week – BB hostel. For the task, the house is divided into to two halves – the girls’ hostel and boys’ hostel. Priyanka and Swami Om are given the responsibility of being the khadus wardens of the girls’ and boys’ hostels respectively. You can imagine what happened next. The contestants have to play in jodis as boyfriends and girlfriends and exchange love letters by tricking their respective wardens. The winning jodi will become the contenders for captaincy.
As soon as the buzzer rings, Priyanka and Swami Om get into the character of strict and authoritative wardens and barge into the house to stop the jodis from exchanging letters. Basically, they lose their minds.
Swami Om hits a new low as he undertakes aggressive and destructive measures to perform the task and gives the contestants a hard time. After he finds Lopa and Rohan writing and hiding letters locked inside the washroom, he calls for them and starts banging on the door. Swamiji’s act reaches a point where the washroom door breaks open and Bigg Boss has to interfere to stop Swami Om from destroying it further.

Bigg Boss asks all the housemates including Swami Om and Rohan to gather in the living area immediately and pulls them up for creating a nuisance out of a simple and entertaining task. He reprimands everyone for not understanding the task and for making it a catastrophe. Bigg Boss then asks everyone to get their act together and perform the task with discipline.

Soon after this, the jodis Bani-Gaurav, Manveer-Nitibha, Mona-Manu and Lopa-Rohan start exchanging lovey-dovey letters and hide them in different corners. But the fun remains short-lived as warden Priyanka goes into destructive mode. She takes atrocity to a new level and makes personal comments on Mona and Manu’s relationship that triggers a major fight between them. She then goes on to get physical with Nitibha, picks a fight with Lopa and Rohan, and breaks into everyone’s lockers to tear up the love letters. When Priyanka and Swami Om’s behaviour becomes obnoxious and intolerable, Bigg Boss discontinues the task in order to bring back some sanity and peace inside the house.
These two need to put into a separate room – called the jail – for rest of the episodes.
